Watching the Democrat Presidential candidates swing through the state of Pennsylvania, it's as if the state all of the sudden had an epidemic of "lifelong Republicans", going through a change of heart and switching over to the Democrats. Not to take part in their primaries, but due to ideological reasons. Obama seemed to be the major, perhaps the only, beneficiary of all these former "lifelong Republicans", now Democrat voters.

It seems that we are dealt this left wing propaganda every election, every primary year. Hordes of "lifelong Republicans" who tell us that they are now Democrats. In reality, the vast majority of them were never Republicans.

One such "lifelong Republican" named Cathy Gregor wrote a letter to the Allentown, PA newspaper, The Morning Call, and it was published.

Excerpt:

I have been a Republican since I first registered to vote 52 years ago. Plus, I have been a ''ditto head'' since Rush Limbaugh has been on the radio. Now, I have changed parties and am a Democrat. Why? Certainly not because Rush Limbaugh urged all his ''ditto heads'' to do so to vote for Hillary Clinton, but because I believe in Barack Obama.

Yet, according to poster Scott Armstrong in the Yahoo Group "The Allentown Commentator", Cathy Gregor is a lifelong Democrat:

To the editor,

I have been a registered Democrat since I first voted thirty years ago but this year I am supporting John McCain.

Don't you think Glenn Kranzley would fact-check this claim before he printed the letter? Why then would he not fact-check today's letter from Cathy Gregor of Lower Macungie Township? The author of the letter not only claims to be a lifelong Republican but also a Rush Limbaugh listener who is voting for Obama.

Apparently, Glenn acted once again on faith rather than intellect. This is a familiar pattern for the editor of the opinion page who time and again has put journalistic and editorial standards on the back burner in order to further the interests his own political allegiance. See the file on Cathy Gregor in the file section for details of her registration with the Democrat Party.

Look for the file that reads: Cathy Gregor.pdf

Sure enough she's a lifelong Dem, who is still a Dem. She registered to vote back in 1984, not 52 years ago. And her birth year is 1947 (which naturally makes it doubly hard to believe that she registered to vote 52 years ago).
